During the ongoing first ODI of South Africa’s tour of England at the Riverside Ground in Chester-Le-Street, South Africa have posted their highest-ever score in One-Dayers versus England in their own backyard.
A fine century from Rassie Van der Dussen (133 off 117), and half-century knocks from Janneman Malan (57 off 77) and Aiden Markram (77 off 61), meant that the Proteas powered their way through to post 333/5 on the scoreboard.
It is worth of a mention that a 151-run partnership off mere 122 deliveries for the third wicket between Markram and van der Dussen laid the foundation for a score in excess of 300, with the English bowlers found struggling in what is one of the hottest days in the city today. Also, the partnership is the highest-ever for the third wicket at the Chester-Le-Street.
In reply, at the time of writing, England have got off to a cautious start, having posted 47 on the board without any loss after the end of the mandatory powerplay.
